The main objective of ICR Malaysia is to promote the development of socially responsible business practices. Apart from promoting sustainable development, initiating and embedding Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) best practices will give Malaysian companies a competitive edge in serving developed markets, whilst at the same time raising business standards for the benefit of all stakeholders.

CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) aspirations are increasingly evident in the National Integrity Plan, the Ninth Malaysian Plan, the Capital Market Master Plan, the Silver Book - CSR Guidelines for GLCs, and the CSR Framework for Malaysian PLCs by Bursa Malaysia.

As we seek to position Malaysian companies in the global market using the CSR platform, it is logical to establish ICR Malaysia, as a key driver devoted to promoting, developing and building the national capacity in CSR.
